Looney Tunes: Back in Action
Director: Joe Dante
Year Released: 2003
Rating: 2.0
Daffy and Bugs cause chaos wherever they go - aided by Brendan Fraser and Jenna Elfman - and fight the forces of ACME, led by Steve Martin. The jokes aren't always successful - Martin's Dr. Evil impersonation is particularly off (stick to the novellas, Steve, they're pretty good) - although there are a few inspired bits involving a race with Elmer Fudd through masterpieces by Seurat and Dalí, not to mention cameos by the Robot Monster and Kevin McCarthy from Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Fraser and Elfman are good sports about it all, naturally, and it's always a pleasure to see Joan Cusack.
